NEW YEAR!!! WOO! Party time!
#36 What are your plans for this new year?
From the Curator šš»
Yo, What's up! Joseph here
Welcome to the NEW YEAR!!! WOO! Party time!
Jkā¦ Some people approach the new year with a āNew Meā attitude while others roll their eyes and keep living life the same way. Neither is a bad option but have you stopped to ask yourself why you think this way? Do you really think your mind set will shift in the span of a day and youāll hold yourself accountable for the first time in 30 years to actually put down the snacks and eat something healthy? Shit.. that was deep. Literally my mind thinking about the half eaten cookie on my desk all while thinking about something smart to say at the same time..
Sidetrack!
One of my goals like always is to just stay consistent. Just like I said above, I know itās not happening over night but one thing that has happened over night is the sudden realization that Iām in deep shit.. My circumstances in life have changed this year! My daughter is almost a year and a half! My wife is finally done with school and working now, and Iām still making below average for what the national average says Iām supposed to be.
Now back to being consistent!
Chapter 2 - Consislacencyā¦ thatās a word, right?
It sounds a whole lot like complacency and thatās what my life in architecture has been. Do I give up my cool job and work as a āsuitā in some other firm thatās no fun? Do I just suck it up and leave it to fate? Noā¦ Iām creative, shit, the diploma hanging on my wall in a dollar store frame says so! SO Iām no longer going to be complacent, Iām going to be consistent. Iām going to dig my way out of student loan debt, Iām going to keep creating in whatever form of design that Iām able to.
Cool.. Cool.. So I hope you all stick around this year and I hope you find yourself being consistent in your goals too!
Iām pretty sure you can respond to this email or comment down below or even send me a message on the socials but I want us to keep in touch. I want to follow your journey too and maybe even remind you one day to keep pushing because I sure as hell know Iāll need some of that advice too. Thanks for reading this far!
Love you! ā„
